The Co-op Podcast 54: Will Microsoft Phase Thier Online Policy Back Into Xbox One Eventually?

Edward Velasquez, Richard Bailey and I return to discuss some of the latest news stories. News has been fairly slow this month so we chose some of the more noteworthy topics from the past two weeks. One of the the topics we found interesting was the petition for Microsoft to bring back their original online policy including DRM for Xbox One. We actually don’t think they will do another reversal, but is it possible that they may phase certain policies back in the Xbox One eventually?

Also we finally discuss the Grand Theft Auto V gameplay trailer that Rockstar released last week. It was certainly very impressive and it did a lot to reassure us of Rockstar’s talent for making open work experiences. They have yet to blow the lid on their multip-layer portion of GTA V, so we decided to do a little speculation on what we might see. Read Richard Bailey’s article 5 Things I Want From GTA V Multiplayer.

Evo was held this past weekend, and it was a very exciting event for those who follow the fighting game scene. At the event Capcom announced a new edition of Street Fighter IV, named Ultra Street Fighter IV. We discuss what this new edition will include and whether we have plans to pick it up next year.

Be sure to let us know what you think on all topics discussed, and hit us up if you’re interested in being a guest on one of our podcasts.
